2.3 Overview of Groups and Users <strong>for</strong> <strong>Oracle</strong> <strong>Clusterware</strong> <strong>Installation</strong>s<br />

You must create the following group and user to install <strong>Oracle</strong> <strong>Clusterware</strong>:<br />

■ The <strong>Oracle</strong> Inventory group (typically, oinstall)<br />

You must create this group the first time that you install <strong>Oracle</strong> software on the<br />

system. In <strong>Oracle</strong> documentation, this group is referred to as oinstall.<br />

Note: If <strong>Oracle</strong> software is already installed on the system, then<br />

the existing <strong>Oracle</strong> Inventory group must be the primary group of<br />

the operating system user (oracle or crs) that you use to install<br />

<strong>Oracle</strong> <strong>Clusterware</strong>. Refer to "Determining If the <strong>Oracle</strong> Inventory<br />

and <strong>Oracle</strong> Inventory Group Exists" on page 2-4 to identify an<br />

existing <strong>Oracle</strong> Inventory group.<br />

■ <strong>Oracle</strong> clusterware software owner user (typically, oracle, if you intend to create<br />

a single software owner user <strong>for</strong> all <strong>Oracle</strong> software, or crs, if you intend to create<br />

separate <strong>Oracle</strong> software owners.)<br />

You must create at least one software owner the first time you install <strong>Oracle</strong><br />

software on the system. This user owns the <strong>Oracle</strong> binaries of the <strong>Oracle</strong><br />

<strong>Clusterware</strong> software, and you can also make this user the owner of the binaries of<br />

Automatic Storage Management and <strong>Oracle</strong> <strong>Database</strong> or <strong>Oracle</strong> RAC.<br />

On <strong>HP</strong>-<strong>UX</strong>, the owner of <strong>Oracle</strong> <strong>Clusterware</strong> software must have the RTPRIO,<br />

MLOCK, and RTSCHED privileges.<br />
